As per Trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Kesari 2 "opened on expected lines across key markets."

“While the #GoodFriday holiday should've ideally resulted in a stronger Day 1 total, the noticeable rise in occupancies as the day progressed - driven by excellent audience feedback - is certainly encouraging,” wrote Adarsh.

He further added: “All eyes are now on Saturday and Sunday, when strong word of mouth could translate into solid weekend numbers."

Kesari 2's India net collection currently stands at ₹11.91 crore. It remains to be seen whether the movie will inch closer to ₹20 crore over the weekend.
